CATCH A SINGING BIRD ON THE ROAD

The Private Album [Editorial]

„While my pedal steel gently weeps...“ – Das erste Country Rock Album aus Deutschland, übrigens ebenfalls selbstproduziert, diesmal im Auftrag der CBS. Der Titelsong „Catch A Singing Bird On The Road als Devise und Metapher der Melancholie. Richtungswechsel: Hinwendung zum Ideal des Spezifischen, der Homogenität und Stimmigkeit, zum Laid-Back-Feeling und zu fast privater Intimität...

Breed

Wagons on the bums’ line got new paint
I don’t care
Springtime’s come
I don’t need that coat anymore
I go a-ridin’
I go a-ridin’ again
Don’t ask me mama
If I am happy that way

Anyone of my breed I shall surely smell
Anyone of my breed I shall surely smell

Rode with a jobless guy
Talked of the sweet home he’d have
You’d better go back boy
Maybe you live off your girl
I go a-ridin’
I go a-ridin’ again
Don’t ask me mama
If I am happy that way

Anyone of my breed I shall surely smell
Anyone of my breed I shall surely smell

McGovern’s my man, boy,
listen I’m telling you why
He likes Woody Guthrie
and that is what matters to me
I go a-ridin’
I go a-ridin’ again
Don’t ask me mama
If I am happy that way
